The trick is to look for good and cheap alternatives. It can be one of the following:
- Look for reusable cardboard box and wrap both the bottom and inside sides with pretty paper. Use this as your basket perfect for flowers. Any shape will do as long as it will suit the task.
- Basket from past gift is a win-win deal. Nobody is going to know, especially if it is as good as new. Just don’t forget the givers so it won’t be tacky giving them their own presents.
- Recreate baskets that can be bought from thrift shops. You can give new life to it by spraying paint and adding some flower petals, ribbon or acorn around it.
